Connect with @ambers.fades.and.pomades .
With 17 years behind the chair, she’s more than just a barber — she’s a craftswoman dedicated to precision, creativity, & helping every client leave feeling confident. For nearly two decades, she’s mastered everything from classic cuts to bold, expressive styles, always staying sharp on trends while honoring timeless technique.

A lover of emo music, she appreciates storytelling in every form — whether it’s through lyrics, literature, or the personal style of the clients who sit in her chair.
Passionate, experienced, & always authentic, she brings skill, personality, & a little emo edge to every cut.

Outside the shop, she’s a devoted creative who enjoys clay sculpting, painting, sewing, & adding a little sparkle through bedazzling projects. When she’s not working or crafting, you’ll likely find her at a car show sharping up her automotive knowledge or spending time with her lively crew of three cats & one dog

Junior Barber
Semir Muhammed
Say Silav @smrbarber366. New to the cutting floor, he’s quickly building a reputation for clean cuts & strong attention to detail. Passionate about the craft, he’s always learning & refining his skills to give clients fresh, confident looks. Outside the barbershop, he’s into car modifications & mechanics, spending time working on his vehicle & learning how things run under the hood. When he’s not cutting hair, you can find him watching basketball—or relaxing with a cup of tea, his go-to over coffee any day. He’s not much of a cook, but he definitely enjoys a good meal whenever he gets the chance. Somehow he finds time to do all this while at the same time sleeping for three days on his days off.
